At the January 23 event, Mayor de Blasio gave an enthusiastic speech praising Israel, saying it is part of his job description is to defend Israel and that there is no greater ally on earth than Israel. He ended the speech by announcing that City Hall will always be open to AIPAC. At the time, 58 Jewish liberals – among them rabbis, philanthropists and cultural figures - sent an open letter to the mayor insisting his job is not to adhere to AIPACs whims. “AIPAC speaks for Israel’s hardline government and its right-wing supporters, and for them alone; it does not speak for us,” they concluded.
